BMW ConnectedDrive Strengthens the Bond Between Driver, Vehicle

Being overly connected can sometimes be a bad thing. There’s nothing quite like a friend, family member, or significant other who calls, leaves a voicemail, sends a text, sends an email, calls again, texts again, comes to look for you at work, calls an emergency contact, all while you’re sitting through fifteen minutes worth of previews before a two-and-a-half hour movie.

Relationships are about balance; staying in a reasonable amount of contact from a reasonable distance. Now, BMW drivers can maintain their relationship with the world around them from behind the wheel with ConnectedDrive.

BMW ConnectedDrive offers a freeing sense of connection, allowing BMW drivers to access a multitude of features and functions all from the roomy comfort of their vehicle. ConnectedDrive’s services and apps allow for a better bond with the world around you by facilitating tasks and making more time for the necessary things. Like needy friends. And actual driving.

And with BMW ConnectedDrive Remote Services, you are linked with your BMW even when you are apart. The link between BMW drivers and their rides gives new meaning to the old adage—if you love something set it free. Now, if only our roommates would abide by that same idea.
